A report from CBS this week revealed the working conditions of tens of thousands of children in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) who work in mines to extract the cobalt needed for lithium batteries.

A recent Bloomberg article has brought to light a harsh reality, the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is increasing child labor rates in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC): The appetite for electric cars is driving a boom in small-scale cobalt production in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where some mines have been found to […]

A new coalition of groups in Arizona is seeking to force utilities in the state to generate more power from renewable energy beyond the 15 percent the state currently requires, according to a new report this week.

“Our government is not protecting us because they’re not regulating these pipelines. They’re not regulating the fracking that’s going on. The Big Bend region is under attack by multiple oil and gas industry efforts and this pipeline just helps perpetuate the fracking.”

Glover, who has previously stated that pipeline safety “doesn’t even matter” to the opponents of construction, has taken to social media to discredit the work of the Texas Railroad Commission in regards to pipeline safety.

“Item 315 is our public participation item. We don’t have any additional cards that – people wanting to speak on anything else this morning? Hearing none this meeting of the Railroad Commission of Texas is adjourned. Thank you all.”

It is disingenuous of the Environmentalist Left to claim that the state government ignores their pipeline concerns while skipping opportunities to air out their concerns.
